I am up every morning around 5 am. After this weekend however, my husband is moving out (this is a good thing), and I start my new job on the 9th. So I will probably still get up around the same time, I can't sleep past 5 even on the weekends, so I get a cup of coffee and hit bird board and my local news paper!

5:30 am 7 days/week. No matter what OUR internal clocks or the alarm clock says, the dogs' clocks say UP at EXACTLY 5:30 every freakin' day of the week. They don't seem to "get it" about weekends.... *sigh*

I am generally up by 0530 daily. Every once in a while I'll sleep in for an extra hour.

I'm up at no later than 5 AM...or earlier a lot of times, including weekends. Five hours sleep a night would be a lot for me...I rarely get that many.

If I don't have the morning food ready by the crack of dawn around here, the Caws' will definitely let you and everyone else within a three mile radius know about it.

Yep, same here, up before 6 for sure to send Katrin off to work. Someone has to stand at the end of the balcony and wave a hanky when she drives off into the sunrise.

Wow you are all early birds!!!!! Except maybe Dustin - I'm with you on this one!! I get up around 04.00 or 05.00 to let the puppy out to pee. Then it's back to sleep until at least 12.00 I slept until 12.45 this morning

To top if off when we didn't have a puppy and in winter time (so cold i didn't wanna get up) I used to get up around 14.00 or 15.00 even made it till 16.00 a few days and at that stage I was going to bed at 23.00... which I nearly always do. I like my sleep...

What time do you all go to bed at?? I'm narky if I don't get at least 10 hours sleep - 12 is better for me though.

I get up at 6:30am on weekdays and 8-9am on weekend days.

I could sleep later if I did not have to work. MY internal clock does not even start running till about 11am and a pot of coffee.

I hear you on that one! I **love** my sleep. I am usually in bed by 11pm and up about 5am, but if I can... after all the birds are fed, watered and loved on... I get back in bed! 10 - 12 hours of sleep is what I work best on.
